Our State Capital Correspondence.

Special to the CARBON ADVOCATE.
APRIL 27, 1887.
Another seven days has slipped slowly
into the great beyond since the writing of
my last letter and things and matter in
Pennsylvania State Capital are moving
along as harmoniously as can be desired.
The House has amended the Senate's
joint resolution calling for an adjournment
between the 5th and 10Th of next month,
so we can safely say that in about three
weeks more the legislative body of 1887
will cease to eXist-but in the laws which
they have made it will ever be remembered; I;
while the names of many members of both
Houses win go down to posterity as the
representatives of genuine, unadulterated
eccentricity. From now on there will be a
grand rush in all quarters by Assembly
men who want to have favorite bills or
measures passed, and they may possibly
forget, in this grand rush, to get through
with many important matters, and as a
consequence Governor Beaver will be COM
PEELED to call brief extra session, although
there need be no fear that he will fall in
to the error of his predecessor. However,
under the new compensation clause of 1885,
the expenses of an extra session would not
be so excessive as formerly.

a NEW L. v. R, R. DEPOT WANTED.

A petition has been circulated and signed
by the majority of our prominent mer-
chants and citizens asking the Lehigh
Valley Railroad Company to erect new
depot opposite the Hersh Steam Heating
Works, at the foot of what is generally
known as Mantz's hill, BY the production
of a few solid facts we feel confident that
we can convince the Lehigh Valley Com.
pany of the practicability of erecting the
building asked for by our citizens.
The proposed new depot would be CEN
trally located.
Convenient for our chief manufacturers
and shippers ewing to its close proximity to
the several industrial works.
Desirable by the farmers in the surround
ing valley as it. would be more easily ac-
eessable than the present depot.
A blessing to the weary traveller who ar
siyes on "our shores" with the late night
trains.
Building operations during the past few
years have been carried on chiefly at what
is known as the upper end" about fifty
VI oiNbN pilNdtc ICSiucHCcS, DeSlOtS ScNeTdl
business blocks having been erected in
til 1t time.
If Lehighton grows, and present indica-
cations convince us that 1t will, then 1t
mast necessarily grow where there is the
H.ost territory, and that is at the "upper
end" The consequence of this will be
that the present Lehieh Valley depot will
be on the outskists of the borough while
the L. & S. depot will be almost centrally
located; most convenient for the travelling
public, and as natural result will receive
the bulk of patrenage-both freight and
passenger
The Lehlgh Valley Railroad Company
can only prevent such state of affairs ever
existing by observing the desires of our
people IN the erection of new depot at the
place designated.
The above are straightforward, honest
facts, produced for tire benefit of our cti-
zens in urging the Lehigh Valley Company
TO erect the much desired depot, and ii the
company is wise, and we are of the opinion
that il is, then they will make capital out
Of them.

POLITICS IN CARBON COUNTY.

Although the fall election is little more
than six months off, candidates for the
various county offices are beginning to an
nounce themselves i'm the usual way-by
looking up their political friends and
henchmen in the various election districts:
The political horoscope at this early day
pictures the same grand rush for the sever
Al offices as has characterized the grand
rush in previous years for County offices of
more or less Importance and of more or less
pecuniaTy compensation. 1t is pleasing,
however, to note that there are always a
number Of individuals in the several bodies
polite who are ready, willing and anxious
to control the reins of county government
aud dispense party and individual favors at
the ''old stand"

mentioned in connection with the Office of
Register and Recorder, on the Democratic
aide Of the house, our fellow townsman

emily identified with the labor interests of

In his speech before the st. Louis Cham
Der Of Commerce recently Mr.. Blaine paid
a glowing but just tribute to the memory
of jefferson. lie spoke of the "watchful
care, the great nerve and courage, the
statesmanlike grasp Of Thomas jefferson"
in plucking the great Louisiana territory
from the necessity of France and the am
bition of Great Britain. So great a con-
quest as CHS. he said truly, had never been
made by peaceful methods. Mr.. Blaine
concluded his eulogy with a gentle reproach
to the people of st. Louis that their city,
and, indeed, the whole region comprised
within the Louisiana purchase, should moi
contain astatue of hifn ''who in the an.

A Pernicious Habit.

You doubtless remember the story
about the Good Templars who were
marching down street bearing banner
with the appropriate inscription: I'VE
bend the knee, but not the elbow.
But there was an old fellow who was
holding up a tree-box while he viewed
the procession; his temperance charter
had expired a year or two before, and
be hadn't had time to renew; he was
about four-thirds full. He looked at
the banner and deciphercd the inscrip-
ton with great disgust "Aw-yes. +"
he said, you bend the-hic-knee, but
not the-hic-elbow know you do

Horse Talk BY an Old Breeder.


There are great many troubles with
horses which could be cured without
difficulty If they were looked after in
time. For instance, n man away out IN
Colorado writes that his colt has two
scabs or sores on its ear, and they are
growing larger all the time No doubt
this Is the beginning of mango, or they
may be caused by rubbing the skin of,
and then the flies or other insects would
keep them irrltated.
The simple and sure remedy for all
such skin diseases and especially for
mango is carbolic acid, or It's equivalent,
found in the sheep pips. For mango
the solution should be made quite
strong. and it should be well rubbed in
so rs to penetrate to the very bottom
and reach all the vermin al work.
There is nothing better to cure flesh
wounds and sores than lard with some
salt mixed in it, The lard is healing
and the salt cleansing. When there is
proud flesh" as farmers call granu-
lation, then kerosene oil should be
mixed with the lard, or carbolic acid,
both of which contain the same prin-
ciple, creosote, and il is this which has
the antiseptic effect. that is, the effect
to counterfeit putrescence or decay.
All sores and wounds should be treated
in this way as soon as discovered, to
prevent pus forming and putrefaction,
which may be followed by blood-poi-
soning. Sores should be washed with
CASTLE soap or the discharge will take
the hair of, and the irritation will ex-
tend. Putting on sailed grease will
keep the skin healthy. and the hair will
generally come in natural, but If not it
will come in white and disfigure the
animal. When a horse has these spots
Of white hair on his breast or back it is
a sure sign that he has had hard usage.
He has been CALLED and neglected, and
It docs not speak we'll for his owner
Warts and all such excresccnces
may usually be gotten rid of by tying a
small cord around them and so cutting
of the circulation into them. This is
the best way and the surest. When the
bunch drops off the wound may be
CREASED over, or If necessary. touched
with some sort Of caustic. 1t is better
to let warts or any kind of tumors
slough of than to cut them after being
tied. There is danger Of the cord slip
ping off and bleeding taking place,
whereas II the knife is withheld there is
20 such danger. Farm Journal.

Facts for Farm ers.

Pruning of the harder kinds of trees
NAV 90 on in all suitable weather.
Frames containing cabbage, caull-
flower or lettuce plants ought TO be well
aired daily.
Choose your breeding stock carefully
imperfectons are likely to be perpetu-
ated; blood will tell.
Interest is like an open faucet to the
nolasses barrel. The molasses will
run out slowly, but it will all get out.
If the line fences are not on the exact
line, have them put there at once. You
can not afford TO quarrel with anyone.
One barn large enough for all is bet
ter than several small ones. Have
everything under one roof, and have it
we'll insured.
The barn should be handy, far
enough off so as not to be IN danger if
the house burns, and not to endanger
the house if il burns.
1t is the appearance of goods that
sells them. Nice. large, fat, plump
white turkeys. ducks, chicks or geese
always bring outside prices.
At this season. when the corn is be-
ing fed to the hogs, it should be re-
membered that the warmer and more
comfortable hogs are kept the less corn
required.
II farmer will take care not 10 pur-
chase what he can not use or has little
use for. he will soon learn that 1t is
poor economy for him to buy anything
but the best.
The farmer who does not fence in
his stock when living along the line OF
railroad not only runs the risk Of
losing valuable animals, but endangcrs
the lives Of travellers.
In building fences. take the cost and
the time that they WI last into con-
sideration. All fences are costly, and
the fewer you have the better.
1t is possible that old hens may be
too fat to lay; not SO with pullets.
Feed them abundantly. Even in the
case Of old hens less laying goes on as
a result Of under than Of over feed

Roots are valuable aids to digestion
when given in connection with grain
food, but when fed exclusively or
given lavishly they have a too laxative
effect, which quickly runs down the
sheep.
